[Mono-winforms-list] TreeView.TreeViewNodeSorter seem to have no effect

[Carlos Alberto Cortez]

Hey!

This should be fixed in rev 155655 (svn).

Thanks,
Carlos.

> ((TreeNode)b).Text);
>            res *= -1;
>            return res;
>        }
>    }

>            invTree.TreeViewNodeSorter = new SorterClass();
>            Controls.Add(invTree);
>
>            TreeNode root = new TreeNode("My root");
>            invTree.Nodes.Add(root);
>
>            for (char c = 'A'; c <= 'Z'; c++)
>            {
>                TreeNode n = new TreeNode();
>                n.Text = c.ToString();
>                n.Name = c.ToString();
>                for (int i=0; i<20; i++)
>                {
>                    TreeNode inside = new TreeNode(i.ToString());
>                    n.Nodes.Add(inside);
>                }
>                root.Nodes.Add(n);
>            }
>
>            invTree.Sort();

> Two observed behaviors differ from .net
>
> 1) Bug, Setting TreeViewNodeSorter has no effect if there is only one
> top level node. (actually it does have an effect of turning on
> sorting, just that the Compare() is never called and sorting is done
> by a default system function).
> 2) Different behavior. On Windows under .NET one does not need to
> explicitly call Sort(). Nodes are sorted as they are inserted.
